Gas prices declining

OKLAHOMA CITY — The price of gasoline continues to decline across much of Oklahoma. AAA Oklahoma said Tuesday in its weekly price survey that one gallon of regular self-serve gas was just under $2.97 per gallon — down 2 cents per gallon from last week.

The average in Oklahoma City was $2.93 per gallon.

AAA said the average price in Oklahoma is the fifth-lowest in the nation.
